We have been given that Jackson purchases a new car for $48,000. The car's value can be modeled by the following exponential function:
where y represents the car's value and t represents time in years. We are asked to find the decay rate as a percentage.
We know that an exponential decay function is in form
, where,
y = Final value,
a = Initial value,
r = Decay rate in decimal form,
x = time.
Upon comparing our given function
with standard decay function
, we can see that
.
Let us solve for r.



Let us convert 0.24 into percentage.

Therefore, the decay rate is 24%.

Step-by-step explanation:
First solve this like a normal equation:
-3x - 6 > 9
Add 6 to both sides:
-3x > 9 + 6
-3x > 15
Divide by -3 and remember to switch the inequality sign:
x < 15/(-3)
x < -5
Think about the graph of x = -5. It's a vertical line crossing the y-axis at x = -5. Now, we have x is less than -5. That means all the values less than -5 should be viable solutions. So, shade the part of the graph to the left of the vertical line.
Also, since we have x < -5 and not x ≤ -5, the line should be dotted.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
a reciprocal is a number that when multiplied by a given number gives 1 as product.
16 * x = 1
x = 1/16
9/10 * x = 1
x = 10/9
